J The HENDERSON CHoIUs.-The Young
Mems Christian Associa lion Hall, in the
Lehman building, is now used by the
Musical Association for chorus prac,ic e
and business meetings. This is better
arrangement than heretofore; the room is
we'll furnished and much larger than the
one the chorus have been using. By the
way, we are pleased to see interest in the
!! Musical Association growing. The men,
bership is increasing and 4 more lively
interest seems to be taken in it by our pco-
pie generally.
A grand concert is being arranged for
October 18th, court week.
PERsONAL-Mr. Archibald A. Hicks
who for some time has been reading law
under his brother Mr.. I. L. Hicks, in this
place, was granted license by the Supreme
Court this week to practice. We congrat-
ulate the young gentleman. Mr.. Hicks is
close student and has applied himself
diligently to his work since taking up the
study of the law, ard his thoronghness in
tue intricate problems Of that science Cf
human knowledge and endeavor is per-
haps no less a compliment to his brother
than to himself. Mr.. Hicks will probably
locate in Oxford. The GOLD LEAF wishes
him the most flattering success in his chosen
field of the law.

SEASONAL season for buying
heating stoves has arrived, and you will
find large and complete stock to select
from at the store Of j. L. Ii. Missillier
The Altoona cooking range, six holes, only
S35, is the best and cheapest cooking appa-
ratus now on the market, while the New
Economist oil stoves, cookers and heaters,
are the favorites of that class of goods.
Mr.. Missillier sells handsome little oil

anything of the kind we have seen. 1t does

EDUCATIoNAL-The GOLD LEAF is pleas
ed to announce the arrival of Mr.. w. A.
Wilson of Virginia, and the opening of his
school for boys and young men. We have
heretofore spoken of the qualifications of
this gentleman as an educator and are free
to commend his school to the consideration
and patronage of those having sons to edu-
cate. Mr.. Wilson is a graduate of the
University of Virginia and comes highly
recommended by the faculty as both a
scholar and christian gentleman. IN every
way fitted for the duties and requirements
of the profession TO which he proposes 20
devote his life-service. Together with his
natural endowments and requirements MI.
Wilson has had the advantage of several
years experience as teacher and enters
upon his work here with every assurance
OF success.

MUSICAL TRAINING FOR CHILDREN-A
very commendabie work being done by the
Henderson Musical AssOciation-or more
properly speaking, by Mr.. Geo. S. Prichard,
the Director-is the musical training af-
forde6 the youth of our town. In connec-
ton with the Association children s
chorus was organized some time ago and
those who have witnessed their performance
on public occasions are qualified to be their
own judges of the good work accomplished
in this field. The musical training of the
children, the advantages to be derived
from such in the future, is so very evident
that the GOLD LEAF takes it to be unnec-
essary to argue this point, especially when
this training is offered them free. While
the children's chorus already numbers a
good many of the brightest and most intel
ligent boys and girls of the town, there are
still others who should be given the same
advantages, and when the opportunity is
open to them parents should not be slow to
avail themselves of it.

ABOUT PEACHEs-How does this sound
to people who have not had as many lus-
cious, ripe peaches as they could eat at one
time this year The gainesville, Ohio, Dem
0crGt says:
Madison fruit growers complain that
hundreds of bushels of peaches are rotting
in that township on account of having lit
tie or no market for them. Dealers refuse
to buy any but the large yellow peach and
are paying but small price for these.
There is nothing selfish about our make.
up and we are glad the crop was not a
failure elsewhere as with us, and that
others may enjoy this delicious fruit if we
cannot But when it comes to yellow to-
bacco, we are fright thar and the Ohioans
are not. Nor would we swap.

Yoa Ksrsr.-T'he Jewish Bay Of
Atonenrent, Yom Kippur, commenced at
sunset Tnrsday, and as is their custom the
places of business of cur Hebrew citizens

calendar, and is vigorously observed, alike
by the Orthodox and Reformed congrega-
TORS. 1t is the Jewish day of the annual
expiation of sins, and its observance is
founded on the commandment in the twen-
ty-third chapter of Leviticus, 18th and 30th
verses, inclusive. According to the rules
governing the observance of the day all
Jews, except invalids and children under
thirteen years of age. are vigorously for

Our PROPOSED ILLUSTRATED TRADE
EDITIoN-While we have had time to cam
vass the matter but little SO far, we have
met with considerable encouragement in
the proposed illustrated trade edition of
the GOLD LEAF, as mentioned last week.
The idea takes we'll with the leading
business men. Why we had not determined
upon such a thing before is what they can
not understand. Yes, sir, it is the big
best idea you have yet hit upon, said one
gentleman to us before we got half done
explaining to him our plans and purposes.
ut will be the biggest sent off Henderson
and Vance county ever had if you carry It
out as you purpose said another, Willie
all are agreed that it would be good thing
for the town and county.
